After a dental procedure, you should consume a soft-food diet to prevent irritation and support tissue repair. Focus on nutrient-dense, easy-to-chew options like lukewarm soups, scrambled eggs, and mashed vegetables. Avoid hot, crunchy, or spicy foods for at least a week to ensure the surgical site heals without complication or infection.

• Protein Sources: Scrambled eggs, Greek yoghurt, cottage cheese, soft tofu, and flaked steamed fish.
• Grains and Vegetables: Mashed potatoes or pumpkin, well-cooked pasta, porridge, and soft avocado.
• Fruits and Sweets: Mashed bananas, smoothies (without straws), custard, and stewed peaches.
• What to Avoid: Crunchy chips, crusty bread, spicy chillies, acidic citrus, and alcoholic beverages.
